Make a date to check out these upcoming PS3 titles that wowed the crowds and media at gamescom 2011.
Assassin's Creed RevelationsEzio is armed with a fresh set of weapons and abilities to help him overcome another band of ruthless Templars and traitors. His famous Eagle Vision has been heightened, and he now possesses an even more powerful Eagle Sense which highlights past events along with enemies and secret passageways.
The vast weapon wheel now holds two types of ammunition; knives, guns and blades can be found in the primary one, while a secondary wheel holds bombs and explosives. In addition, the acclaimed multiplayer mode introduces many new characters, each with their own back story and history.
NeverDead
If Bryce burns in fire, he can blast off flaming bullets from his gun. Electrocute him and he can use his body as a conduit to electrify his foes. Even losing limbs doesn't faze Bryce – he can simply recollect his body parts by rolling over them, or use them as weapons.
With its dark gallows humour, NeverDead is memorable and inventive. It will change the way you look at the typical action adventure when it launches on PS3 late 2011.
Borderlands 2
The result is a humorous, Mad Max style tale set in a richly detailed, distinctive world that is brought to life using a heavily inked, almost comic book, art style that really sets it apart from other titles in the first person shooter mould. Added to this, little environmental touches such as smoke trails, distant waterfalls and fluttering flags help to create a sense of a world that is constantly evolving around you.
You'll be able to delve deep into this world as missions evolve and lead you across the landscape, taking down enemies along the way. Other innovations include smarter enemies, an on-screen mini-map and updates to the co-op multiplayer mode.
Prey 2
The alien world of Exodus is a sandbox of strange creatures, where you can explore, talk to its inhabitants and apprehend dangerous criminals. Prey 2's Blade Runner style presentation works to make it a visual masterpiece, drawing you into Exodus with lush environments and freakish aliens. Hover boots, threat detecting visors and other technological wonders are yours to play with.
It's an epic journey where your actions and decisions have powerful consequences on your quest for identity. Impressive and engaging, first person shooters rarely come prettier or more involving than Prey 2.
Lollipop Chainsaw
The undead have overrun San Romero High and it's up to you as Juliet to use a dizzying array of athletic moves to see them off in this high-kicking action adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Oh, and of course there's a certain chainsaw to get to grips with, all of which makes for a fresh take on the action adventure genre that is sure to bring a smile to your face when it hits PS3 in 2012.
